The Gift of Sharing
Laundry on Christmas Eve—“What a way to spend the holiday!” you might be thinking. You know, gifts are all around us if you look closely.

The Gift of Giving in Secret
If you really want to grow spiritually, do something nice for someone, and don’t tell a single soul. How we behave when no one is watching reveals our true character. The Bible tells us to give in secret—it is an act of faith to give while believing your good deeds won’t go unnoticed by God.…

The Gift of Daddy: Protecting Children From the Spirit of Rejection
Daddy’s birthday was Monday, and I’ll never stop missing him. It brings me comfort knowing I was blessed to have him with me for 28 years of my life.

The Gift of Femininity
Femininity is a gift that is rejected by a large number of women in today’s society. Femininity isn’t defined by our hobbies, our clothing, or our favorite color.

The Gift of Freedom: Why Caged Birds Still Sing
What’s caging you right now? Anxiety, depression, heartbreak, illness, poverty, maybe a failing marriage, or even children. Freedom is not a physical place or circumstance but rather a state of being we create. It’s part of nature to use our God-given gifts to bring ourselves and those around us joy. We as humans forget this…

The Gift of Words
‘Tis the season of gift-giving. What will you give to others? Material gifts can be wonderful and bring us much joy, but what about the gifts God has placed inside of you?

The Gift of Believing the Best in Others: She is Clothed in Faith
My timer went off, and it was time to go get my clothes out of the dryer. Seconds after walking into the laundromat, my demeanor quickly changed as I realized my clothes were gone!
